Access to NFS shadow copy pseudo-subdirectories is governed by normal access-control
mechanisms using the permissions stored in the file system. Users can access only those shadow
copies to which they have read access at the time the shadow copy is taken. To prevent users
from modifying shadow copies, all pseudo-subdirectories are marked read-only, regardless of
the user's ownership or access rights, or the permissions set on the original files.
Server for NFS periodically polls the system for the arrival or removal of shadow copies and
updates the root directory view accordingly. Clients then capture the updated view the next time
they issue a directory read on the root of the share.

Recovery of files or folders

There are three common situations that may require recovery of files or folders:
Accidental file deletion, the most common situation
Accidental file replacement, which may occur if a user selects Save instead of Save As
File corruption
It is possible to recover from all of these scenarios by accessing shadow copies. There are
separate steps for accessing a file compared to accessing a folder.

Recovering a deleted file or folder

To recover a deleted file or folder within a folder:
1.
Access to the folder where the deleted file was stored.
2.
Position the cursor over a blank space in the folder. If the cursor hovers over a file, that file
is selected.
3.
Right-click, select Properties from the bottom of the menu, and then click the Previous
Versions tab.
4.
Select the version of the folder that contains the file before it was deleted, and then click
Open.
5.
View the folder and select the file or folder to recover. The view may be navigated multiple
folders deep.
6.
Click Restore to restore the file or folder to its original location. Click Copy to allow the
placement of the file or folder to a new location.

Recovering an overwritten or corrupted file

Recovering an overwritten or corrupted file is easier than recovering a deleted file because the
file itself can be right-clicked instead of the folder. To recover an overwritten or corrupted file:
1.
Right-click the overwritten or corrupted file, and then click Properties.
2.
Click Previous Versions.
3.
To view the old version, click Open. To copy the old version to another location, click Copy
to replace the current version with the older version, click Restore.

Recovering a folder

To recover a folder:
1.
Position the cursor so that it is over a blank space in the folder to be recovered. If the cursor
hovers over a file, that file is selected.
2.
Right-click, select Properties from the bottom of the menu, and then click the Previous
Versions tab.
